Adela is a 2000 Argentine thriller film directed and written by Eduardo Mignogna.

The film was based on the novel Le Coup de lune by Georges Simenon, adapted by François-Olivier Rousseau.

Two murders have been committed in Hotel Central, the inhospitable meeting point of the mixture of indigenous, Creole and European people who live in San Jacinto, a city of despair.

Adela, the attractive owner's wife, blames Maria, one of the servants.

In an oppressive atmosphere, where escaping seems to be the only thing that matters, Timar will struggle between his feelings for Adela and the injustice of convicting an innocent person.
